Fri 6.6.2014: Balkan, Turkey, Italy -tentative Algeria

The first full day gave us nice 3 h conditions strating from Turkey and Balkan, (+ Romania, Bulgaria) moving to Italy for the end. High MUF almost all the time.
Nothing spectacular observed, but especially Serbian opening gave some new stations. Conds started at 0840 lasting till 1140utc.

After this push Arabic language was heating the crew at 1210utc on lower FM-band. 87.8 and 88.4 aired same programme. It is presumed to be Algeria altough this does not match to the station-database. Also Arabic on 88.1 and 88.7 MHz. This douple-hop lasted only a few minutes.

Again some Italy during the afternoon. The evening was silent.
This is now 8th day in a row with Sporadic E - altough not big openings yet! They are still to come in June. CLICK>
